(A Brief) There are over 20,000 Starbucks locations around the United States and in 40 countries; compared to only 10,000 Dunkin' Donuts. (Carroll) Just the fact that there are more locations clearly shows that more people drink Starbucks than Dunkin' Donuts. Dunkin' Donuts was created twenty years before Starbuck, so you would think that Dunkin' would have more locations. Why spend two dollars for a coffee from Starbucks when you could spend a dollar at Dunkin Donuts or even McDonalds? Everyone knows Starbucks is more expensive but that doesn’t stop them from buying it.

Most people think a good way to store coffee is in the freezer, but that results in your coffee absorbing moisture or leaving your coffee exposed to oxygen in the bag. Oxygen and moisture are coffee’s biggest enemies. Another thing you may not know is that coffee expires six days after opened, or up to a maximum of two weeks if the coffee is handled correctly. If you keep your coffee in a cool dry place with the bag unopened your coffee could last up from six months to a year after the batch was cooked. Coffee should be ground fresh every time as grinding coffee releases the flavor profiles and the freshness in the coffee beans, and buying your coffee pre-ground can release flavors into your coffee making it taste stale.

Folgers dominated the home coffee market prior to the boost in popularity of K-cups, but since then, they seem to have a lot more competition in the coffee market. While Folgers has made their own line of K-cups and generally continued to do well, they would prefer if consumer habits retreated back to traditional home brewing, where they had more market dominance.
